[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
This bug is no more issue in Ubuntu 9.10. Module pcspkr has been disabled by default. No more annoying beeps on tabs. Bug 77010 has more information. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The issue is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug the to the people writting the software (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME) ** Package changed: control-center (Ubuntu) = gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
I have the same problem here; I spent a good few days trying to find some way to turn off the internal speaker just to get around the issue - except that there isn't a way to do it (even in the BIOS). It would be nice if there was a global switch in System Preferences Sound to turn this off. Right now my machine beeps when it shuts down, beeps when I autocomplete, beeps when I run off the top of a man page, beeps all over the place in vim... Lots of beeping. My laptop speaker is pretty beefy too, so the whole neighbourhood can hear my lack of vim experience. ...this wasn't really a problem on my desktop, I just yanked out the mobo connectors. :) -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Adam: as a bypass, try $ sudo rmmod pcspkr For more info, see links on my initial comment.

[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
I agree strongly with the submitter of this bug. Excessive beeping like this creates a hazard where users become trained to ignore beeps and thus disregard other beeps that provide valuable warnings. -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

do you still get the issue in hardy or intrepid? -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
Yes, the issue is present in Hardy. Disabling the beep is not at all obvious to beginners - many students ask about removing the beep every week. I have not tested if it's there on Intrepid. -- beeps on tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
I agree: no beep is the best. When user presses tab, there is nothing to beep about. Users attention is already on screen. There is no danger at sight. Long operation has not just ended. And there is no point in (beep) telling (beep) the (beep beep) whole office (beep) that user is (beep) using (beep) bash as normal.

[Bug 38848] Re: beeps on tab
Speaking for myself, I don't want any beep at all. No visual epilepsy- inducing flickering, no audible disruptive electric discharge, please. The corresponding bug in KDE is bug 67834. -- beeps on tab https://launchpad.net/bugs/38848 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Basically you want to get the visual beep option being the default then? ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-control-center = control-center Importance: Medium = Wishlist Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs -- beeps on tab https://launchpad.net/bugs/38848 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
